Rating: 4 / 5
This book is full of usefull info that proves to be right on target. The cough syrups worked, the homemade pain meds do their job. I just like the book all in all. It’s a good book for the ding-a-ling beginner to the folks who know a heck of a lot more than me. Some of the recipes called for to many herbs, so I read their purposes and was able to elimintate a few from a recipe. Worked just fine. I don’t get overwhelmed easy I just finagle. The book is worth the money so no frets.

i bought this book when i first got interested in herbalism. now most everything i know on taking care of day-to-day illnesses comes from this book. sore throats, headaches, stomach problems, ear problems… it’s indispensable. also, it’s very well organised and has several indices, so you can search by herb or by complaint. it’s a keeper!

While many of ideas are practical for the “mountain-living” type, I doubt an apartment dweller would find much use in the recipe for lye soap. An attempt is made to keep to the tame remedies (lemon & honey, etc.), but many are ineffective and some are still plain dangerous (like taking potentially lethal megadoses of vitamins as cures). The herbal glossary is useful, as well as the scientific listing of names in the back, but I would recommend few of the recipes between.
